Noble Lion's Guide to Manifestation

I feel that manifestation is an inherent gift. It's always available to tap into it. Today I want to share with you my guide to manifesting anything your pretty little heart desires. 

First, just to be thorough, lets talk about what manifestation is exactly. Manifestation is the practice of energetically guiding the universe to make your wishes/desires a reality. Its the act of organizing the future and telling the universe what it is that you really want. 

Understand that the universe does not hear words like "no", "don't" and "not" which is why sometimes we manifest things we really didn't want with worrisome thoughts. So instead of thinking "I don't want to wreck my car in this snow", train your mind to think more along the lines of "I have faith that my car and I will be safe driving in this snow" or "Please protect me while I drive in this snow". Its hard to train your thoughts but the first step is being aware of what and how you think and making an effort to guide your mind in a different direction. Heads up, this will not happen over night. 

Thoughts, words and actions all have different strengths in manifestation. Thoughts have power but their power is fleeting unless you truly take time to visualize and focus on a particular thought. Words are more powerful than thoughts but they can still be taken on the wind and forgotten, they are best utilized with repeating and chanting. Action or writing (making thoughts physical) in my opinion is the most powerful means of manifestation. When you take the time to organize and write down your thoughts to the universe not only does it solidify your wishes, you also have something to reference once you have reached your goal. 

That being said I think it is important to note that one must be specific as possible when writing down intentions. If you write down vague intentions and desires you will get vague results from your manifestation. However, if you take the time to really get detailed with your intentions you will find that the universe delivers every time! 

A common misconception about manifesting is that whatever you want just magically appears, this is not the case. True manifestation takes faith. Yes, faith. If you do not have faith that the universe will support you and provide for your needs, it wont. You must also have faith in yourself and the inner power of manifestation you possess.  

Manifestation also requires action! You cannot supply the universe with a laundry list of demands and do nothing to help yourself. If your greatest desire is to be a movie star, it doesn't matter how many times you write that in a journal, if you never put yourself out there to be discovered it will never happen. Help the universe help you. Push yourself to dig deeper and reach higher for the things you want! 

Lastly, but probably most importantly it is absolutely crucial to give thanks and be grateful for the things that you manifest. Gratitude goes so incredibly far in the universe and you can never have enough! 

This post is getting a little long winded so I'm going to wrap it up. 

*Train your thoughts to support the positive lifestyle/goals you are trying to manifest

*Write down your intentions/goals/wishes/desires and be specific.

*Follow up your manifestation rituals with action 

*Learn to have faith in yourself and the universe 

Be grateful and give thanks when your intentions become reality through manifestation

Hope this post will get you started and on your way to manifesting great things! If you have questions or comments please leave them below or email me!

Earth and The Suit of Pentacles

Earth represents practicality, stability and materialism. Earth is the structure and discipline required to reach our highest aspirations.It is a stable element that supports and absorbs its surrounding energies. This element has the power to build you up or shake you to your core. Earth is most beneficial when it is structured, but it knows what it needs just like nature and should be left to its own devices. Earth is everything physical: stones, trees, bodies, mountains, animals, the planet, our physical realm and dimension, time, money, work, family, career, choices, experience and existence. It is practical and logical and measurable. Earth is order.

Earth is connected to Mercury, Venus and Saturn. Mercury is the planet of communication, intellect and mischief. It can be very telling of love language and communication style. Venus is the infamous planet of love and beauty. Abundance surrounds this planet and she is very generous to those who fall under her sign. Saturn is known as the karma planet. For every action there is a consequence and Saturn never forgets. But! Saturn is fair and rewards hard work and kindness three fold. So pay it forward. 

Suit of Pentacles:

Pentacles are associated with the Element Earth and represent the qualities and traits of the three Earth signs in the zodiac: Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn. 

Keywords: Body/Material 

This suit is slow, steady and calculating. Pentacles are mature, practical and determined in what they want. They like life to be stable and routine. They are very focused on family and have a good grasp on finances and resources. They are driven and capable, willing to work hard for what they want. They may be quiet about their ambitions but they move closer towards them everyday. Pentacle energy is soothing, predictable and grounding. This suit is lavish and navigates well through the physical realm.

Full Moon in Virgo - Refining the Rock

The Full Moon in Earthy Virgo asks us to step back and reorganize - our lives, our bedroom closet, the office…whatever has been messy and out of whack lately. We have been floating through the deep waters of Pisces but now we must stop swimming and think. We need a solid plan, one that will lead us to our bigger goals. Something tangible. Its a good idea to spend time alone peacefully contemplating and meditating in order to quiet and clear your mind. This Full Moon is asking us to let go of any thoughts or attitudes that no longer serve us like doubt, fear and hate. Once we have an open and clear mind we are ready to take decisive action towards our goals and turn our dreams into a reality.  

The Virgo energy calls us to purify in anyway possible. What are your eating habits? Are you eating clean? Do you feel nourished by what you put into your body? Have your been treating yourself well emotionally? Have you been challenging your mind or zoning out on the boob tube?

Its time to focus on the sacred trinity of Body, Mind and Spirit. When you strengthen your body, it sharpens your mind, when you sharpen your mind it strengthens your spirit, when your strengthen your spirit your body follows suit. They are all three intimately connected.

With other aspects finishing their brutal dances we find ourselves in the middle of some serious transformations bringing new beginnings we never thought possible. Change is never easy or comfortable but when we accept it we are rewarded with something better than what we left behind.

Tarot - What to ask and how to ask it

One of the most intimidating things about getting a reading or even reading for yourself as a beginner can be what to ask and how to ask it! Ive decided to share some of my personal tips on this subject. 

As a general rule if you ask a vague or general question you will tend to get a vague and general response from the cards unless there is something subconscious waiting to burst through and speak. The same can be said for specific questions, they typically will garner very clear and specific answers. 

So, when reading for someone who is inexperienced with the Tarot I tend to start with something general like a celtic spread to get a feel for whats going on with them. The celtic spread is a good starting place because it covers most bases and allows for a good flow of communication. (If you are unfamiliar with the celtic spread you can check it out HERE) Once I go through all the placements and meanings in the celtic spread I typically will ask if there are anymore specific questions on that subject and have my client pull a few more cards accordingly. This is great for clarification and closure on the subject. 

When reading for myself I like to do things a little differently. Im big on writing down my readings so I will usually map out my questions on paper before I even touch my cards. This also cuts out the possibility of forgetting what question goes with what card! When asking questions I phrase them like I would if I was talking with another human being - its just that simple. Let me give you some examples:

*Say you are interested in someone but don't really know where you stand with that person  - you could ask things like "what are the intentions of this person in relation to myself" - "Is the timing right for this to happen" - or simply "does this person like me"

*Say you are looking for a new job and have two potential options - you could ask something along the lines of "Which path is best suited to my needs option A or B" - or "which job will make me the happiest emotionally option A or B" - "Which job will bring me the most financial rewards option A or B"

*Say you want to know about your financial situation over the next couple of months (I do readings like this a lot) - pick a card for each coming month that you're interested in and get a feel for whats coming - or take it a step further and pick a card for each week in the coming month to get more of a break down. 

I want to stress that anything can be a question but its best to be as clear and simplistic as possible when asking that question so you limit the chances of being confused by the answer! 

I hope this was helpful!

Full Moon in Leo

This Full Moon in Leo is simple. Its about LOVE. Leo rules the heart and celebrates love in all capacities. Love yourself, love your partner, love the mailman, even love the people you hate. The bigger your heart is from love the more open it is to receiving love in return. Have the courage to celebrate life and love!

Fill yourself up with love until your cup runneth over. Allow yourself to be swept away in this energy if only for a little while. With Jupiter aligned with this Full Moon anything you have love for will expand! Business, relationships, and creative pursuits to name a few. 

Creativity knows no bounds during this Full Moon cycle. Explore it! And don't be afraid to make mistakes. Love yourself so much that you dare to step outside of your comfort zone. Try new things, meet new people and marvel at where life takes you.
